Story Behind The Song
One of the scenes in a musical I was collaborating on with my brother, Scott, calls for a minister to describe love to an engaged couple. My sister-in-law, Danielle, suggested I refer to the passage from Corinthians that describes love. She read it aloud and each phrase became part of this song (excuse me, God, for my edits to your words). Don't you just love it when songs write themselves? This song has two versions: "Love Is" and "Wedded Bliss" (which is the title song of the musical).

Lyrics
Love Is
Love is patient, love is kind
Comes from the heart, the soul, the mind
So sayeth the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
Love does not envy, love does not boast
Love rejoices in the truth
The fact you're here is living proof
That love honors life
Like a husband honors his wife
Love is not easily angered
Love records no wrong
To really know what love is
Listen to the song
Love is not proud, love has no fear
Love is music to the ear
Love protects, trusts, hopes
And always perseveres
